Apostille Service in Flower Mound, Texas
Apostille Request Form
Flower Mound calls itself a town, though with 75,956 residents at the 2020 census it is the largest Texas municipality to use that label. It sits almost entirely in Denton County, with a small area reaching into Tarrant County, and Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport lies only about four miles to the south. Plenty of households here have ties abroad, whether through travel-heavy jobs, family overseas, or plans to study or retire in another country.
When a foreign authority asks for a Texas record with an apostille, Apostille Authentications can prepare and submit it for you. We work with Flower Mound clients by mail and courier and file every request with the Texas Secretary of State in Austin. We do not have an office in Flower Mound or anywhere in Texas, so there is no local drop-off; you ship the documents to us, and we send them back authenticated.
Denton County Clerk Locations Serving Flower Mound
Denton County’s directory lists a County Clerk location at 6200 Canyon Falls Drive, Suite 700, Flower Mound, TX 76226, phone 972-434-3950. It keeps the same weekday schedule as the county’s other clerk offices, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The county says birth and death certificates are available in person at each of its six clerk locations, so this branch is a practical starting point if your record was filed in Denton County.

Ordering remotely is also possible: Denton County links to an online request system and a printable application from its birth and death certificate page. Divorce decrees are held only by the District Clerk at the county courts building in Denton, whose directory entry lists its civil and family contact numbers.
Tarrant County portion: a small slice of Flower Mound lies in Tarrant County. Events recorded there are kept by Tarrant County offices in Fort Worth rather than by Denton County. If you are unsure, Texas Vital Statistics (DSHS) can issue a birth or death certificate from any county; write “Apostille” as the reason on the state application.
Airport Access, Major Employers, and International Paperwork
DFW Airport’s construction in 1974 is credited with sparking Flower Mound’s rapid growth, and the airport remains a defining feature of life in town. The town’s 2025 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report, as summarized in public sources, lists Communications Test Design, Inc. (CTDI) as the largest private employer, followed by MI Windows & Doors and Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Flower Mound.
Between airline and travel-industry households, healthcare workers, and staff of companies that operate in more than one country, the apostille requests from Flower Mound tend to include:
- Marriage certificates for a spouse’s foreign residence or family-reunification visa
- Children’s birth certificates for passports or citizenship registration in a parent’s home country
- Notarized consent letters and powers of attorney for property or family matters overseas
- Nursing and medical credentials, which often begin with a notarized copy or verification letter
- Background checks requested for long-term visas
Students from Lewisville ISD, NCTC, and Area Universities
Most of Flower Mound is in Lewisville ISD, whose campuses include Flower Mound High School and Edward S. Marcus High School. The western side of town is divided among Argyle, Denton, and Northwest ISDs, and the Tarrant County section belongs to Grapevine-Colleyville ISD. North Central Texas College operates a branch campus in Flower Mound’s Parker Square, where Midwestern State University also has a facility for graduate programs.
A graduate applying to a foreign university, or an educator taking a teaching job abroad, will often be asked to apostille a diploma or transcript. Texas authenticates signatures of notaries and public officials, so the school record typically needs to be signed by a registrar before a notary first. We check the document in advance and tell you if it needs that notarization before the state will accept it.

If Your Document Needs Federal Authentication or Legalization
An FBI background check is a federal document, so the U.S. Department of State issues its apostille rather than Texas; read about our FBI apostille service. For countries that are not members of the Hague Convention, including the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, and Kuwait, an apostille will not be accepted and embassy legalization is required instead.
